6.02.141_2 Hands-on fMRI data analysis
  • Thursday, 01.10.26, 09:00 - 17:00 o'clock
  • Friday, 02.10.26, 09:00 - 17:00 o'clock

Description:
The goal of this four-day workshop is to provide students with in-depth practical knowledge on how to analyze fMRI data. It builds up on the module “Functional MRI data analysis” which is offered in the summer term. It is therefore expected that workshop participants have prior knowledge on the principles of fMRI and some experience working with fMRI data, optimally using SPM12. Most of the study time will be dedicated to hands-on sessions in which you will work with fMRI data. Workshop topics include: - Organizing your fMRI dataset according to BIDS - Data preprocessing (SPM12 and fMRIprep) - Controlling the quality of MRI data (using MRIQC) - 1st and 2nd level statistics in SPM 12 (including ANOVA, regression models) - Region-of-interest (ROI) analysis - Extraction/plotting of contrast estimates - Tools for anatomical localization - Data visualization tools - Automating data processing using batch scripts NOTE: Participation in the workshop is generally restricted to students that have completed the “Functional MRI data analysis” course. However, students that have completed one of the other methods modules and work with functional MRI data (e.g., in their practical project or master’s thesis), can also be enrolled. In this case, additional work may be necessary in preparation or alongside the course. Please get in touch with Sebastian Puschmann to discuss the details. 		Seminar - Dr. rer. nat.

6.02.141_3 Complex network analysis of fMRI data The course times are not decided yet.
Description:
Students are asked to bring their own computer with MATLAB installed. During last years there has been a growing interest in analysing the human brain as a complex system of interconnected processing nodes. Such analyses have provided important new insights into the correlation between the organization, dynamics and functions of brain networks and human behaviour. During the course an introduction will be given how to analyse an fMRI data as complex network using graph theory. The course will focus on the analysis of ‘fMRI’ data which need specific analysis approaches to deal with the requirements inherent to the quality of the measured data. Literature: Bullmore, E., Sporns, O., 2009. Complex brain networks: graph theoretical analysis of structural and functional systems. Nat Rev Neurosci 10, 186-198. Profound knowledge in programming (MATLAB, C, r-statistics, or comparable languages) is required. 		Seminar - Dr. rer. nat. Carsten Gießing

6.02.141_5 Experimental and operative neurosurgery The course times are not decided yet.
Description:
To participate, you need present a proof to the lecturers about a full vaccination against measles (this is 2 vaccinations usually within 6 months) or a medical certificate stating that due to health issues you cannot be vaccinated! Without this proof, you cannot enter the hospital and thus not complete the course. The course can be used for the Minor with 3 CP (psy141). It consists of a blocked 3-day course followed by one individual session where you can watch a surgery. The dates of the surgery visit depend on the scheduled suitable surgeries in the EV! To receive credits, you have to attend the surgery. The following dates are planned (one day for each student; the groups will be made in the course): Thursday, 19 March Tuesday, 24 March Friday, 27 March Thursday, 16 April Thursday, 23 April Schedule for the visits: 7:30-8:30 h - How to behave in the Operation Room. 8:30-9:00 h - Operative case presentation. 9:00-12:00 h – Live surgery/ Operation room. 12:00–13:00 h – Lunch break. 13:00-15:00 h – Neuropsychology in the Hospital (Neuro evaluation of patients, tests, dealing with Neuro-oncological and palliative patients). Neurocognition is affected in patients with different kinds of brain injury and brain lesions. We plan to introduce the daily activity in neurosurgery to the students with the profile of psychology and neurocognitive psychology. Neurosurgery includes both non-operative management (eg, prevention, diagnosis—including image interpretation, interpretation of neurocognitive signs, neurological exploration and treatments such as neurocritical intensive care and rehabilitation) and operative management, for example, vascular surgery, functional and restorative surgery, tumor resections, including awake craniotomies and hydrocephalus, including its instrumentation.” Although neurosurgery is fundamentally a surgical discipline, neurosurgery requires knowledge of psychology, neurology, critical care, trauma care, and neuroradiology. Some patients require psychological assessment, example: patients with hydrocephalus, patients who suffered a severe brain injury, and patients who undergo large brain tumor operations and patients with require an awake craniotomy to preserve important brain functions. Neurosurgical subspecialties include pediatric neurosurgery, spine surgery, neuroendovascular, cerebrovascular/skull base, neuro-oncology, pain, peripheral nerve, trauma, and functional neurosurgery. Neurosurgery is one of the most complex areas in medicine and attract some of the best and the brightest physicians. The most competitive neurosurgery departments perform research and interact scientifically with other areas, including psychology. In this class, we will teach some neuroanatomy relevant for the area, and some examples of disorders of the human nervous system. Participants will see how an operation room works and how we get surgical access to the brain, and the principles of brain surgery. 		Seminar - Dr. med. Renan Sanchez-Porras

6.07.978 Applied Topics in Psychophysiology
  • Tuesday, 16:00 - 18:00, Weekly (from 13.10.26)

Description:
This seminar introduces students to central methods and signals used in psychophysiology through the applied topic of human echolocation. Using echolocation as a coherent case study, the course examines how perception emerges from the interaction of sound, movement, bodily state, and neural processing. Students explore how humans generate and control echolocation clicks, which acoustic information is available in returning sounds, how self-generated actions influence sensory processing, and how echolocation is learned and used in controlled and everyday environments. These questions provide a framework for introducing methods including psychophysics, acoustic analysis, EMG, motion tracking, EEG, fMRI, electrodermal activity, heart rate, respiration, and ambulatory assessment. A particular focus lies on the interpretation of psychophysiological signals. Students learn what different methods can contribute, why physiological measures are often ambiguous, and why context, experimental design, and multimodal measurement are essential for meaningful inference. Problem-oriented learning, article-based discussions, and study-design exercises are used to connect methodological principles to concrete research questions.
